Are you seeing it as being in “misery” because you are expecting it to be what it once was instead of the much more modest, personal, and erratic thing I have declared that it now is?
I think so. If it wasn’t so instrumentally useful due to its continuing readership, I’d just freeze the whole site and let it sit there as an archive and never have to delete spam comments again.

I am wondering if you have good reasons for investing any time there at all. It’s possible. That’s why I phrased it as a question.
There are still a surprising number of readers.
Is that your true rejection?

So you think you can reach a wider audience because many of those people will (for whatever reason) not follow you here.
I think another reason could be: Because one day I want to write a book.
